#If you get 'rfc.zlib not found', it may be that your Gauche is configured without zlib support.
#Evaluate this on REPL:
(cond-expand [gauche.sys.zlib 'yes] [else 'no])
If you get no, your Gauche doesn't have zlib support.
#If you compiled Gauche from release tarball, it automatically adds zlib support when the system has one. So it is possible that you didn't have zlib fully installed. On Debian/Ubuntu, you need zlib1g-dev package.
#There are a couple of other things. (1) there's no text.json; you mean rfc.json? (2) to get a list of *.json.gz, you can use glob. (glob "**/*.json.gz") finds all *.json.gz under the current directory.
#Actually, rfc.json has a different API from your code snippet. Are you using an external library?
#I built it explicitly with it assuming that was the problem. even make in ext/zlib directory and make install
#If I run gosh, and run the test it finds it. however the script can't.
##solved the problem.
#thanks
#What was the cause?
#s/rpc/rfc/
#(((Records . #(((eventVersion . 1.09) ... ;; this is a pair. but I can't get assoc-ref/assoc/alist->hash-table to work.
#The assoc list is in the car of that data.
#But I'm not sure where you encounter that, since in a single JSON parse result, a pair can only appear as an alist. However, if you have "a list of json objects", as a result of parse-json*, the toplevel pair is a list, not an alist. You need to iterate each element in the list.
#Sometimes it is confusing that a pair is used both as a list and an assoc list. One way is to provide a custon mapper (json-object-handler) and change the JSON object to other scheme object (e.g. hashtable) as JSON is parsed.
##Good to know. (walk-directory dir) can be (glob (build-path dir "**" "*.json.gz"))
#ok ty
#C-h f let-alist would be great. :P use to let-hash on Gerbil
#Looked up let-hash in Gerbil. That's interesting. Since we have a universal referencer, we could have a syntax sugar (let-anything obj body ...) where inside a body some reader macro (say, #.x) resolves to (~ obj 'x). Something to ponder.
#I use it extensively when parsing large json files.
#Does glob work recursively?
#If the path component contains "**", it matches zero or more intermediate directories.
#awesome
